Title: Fed Power

Subtitle: How Finance Wins

Author: Lawrence R. Jacobs, Desmond King

Narrator: Bob Reed

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 20 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-08-16

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

The Federal Reserve is the most powerful central bank in the world. Without its central bank, America would be subject to devastating fluctuations in currency value and chronic economic instability. To stabilize the economy, the Fed adjusts interest rates and intervenes in the economy more directly when appropriate. According to most Fed observers, it as an impartial referee exercising its independence free from political interference in order to advance the best interests of America. Its actions during the Great Recession were heroic, saving the American and indeed the world economy from a far worse fate.

Wrong.

Lawrence Jacobs and Desmond King's Fed Power is the first sustained examination of the Fed as a potent political institution that systematically provides concealed advantages to a privileged few. The authors trace the Fed's historic development from the fiery tug-of-war over monetary policy during the 19th century to its current position as the most important institution in the American economy, possessing unparalleled capacity and autonomy to intervene in private markets. Yet despite its power and resources, it was asleep at the wheel when the crisis hit. After it hit, the Fed acted swiftly to contain the crisis, but in the process exposed its real preferences. Jacobs and King dissect how the Fed's programs during the Great Recession funneled enormous sums to a select few in the finance industry while leaving Main Street businesses adrift and millions of homeowners underwater. Far from serving the national interest, the Fed increased economic inequality in America and further enriched the "one percent".

America is heading into the next financial crisis without an effective central bank. "End the Fed" is a popular slogan that not only voices the people's displeasure with the Fed's favoritism, but also speaks to a national feeling of the Fed's illegitimacy. Of course, we need a powerful and capable central bank - getting rid of it is a roadmap to mass unemployment and impoverishment. Jacobs and King present an energetic reform agenda to build the sort of accountable central bank that other countries, like Canada, already possess and which can help ensure that the economy remains stable and prosperous for all and not just a few.

Wishing we were Canada

The basic problem is that while government is purposely structured to foster delays, obstruction and compromise, central bankers come to the Fed table âlargely in agreement with the bankersâ view of the world.â They take care of their billionaire friends, and ignore the millions who lost their homes. The Fed is populated by bankers rather than career civil servants. Everyone there is looking for the jump to a far more lucrative post in banking. Your financial health and safety are of no concern, according to Fed Power.

Unlike any other body but the Supreme Court, the Fed is an independent government with the government. It bows to no one, makes investments at will, makes profits, and spends it at will. It (now) has the right to print money at will, buy whole banks and businesses when it feels the need, and supports the financial sector to the exclusion of all else. After all, big finance lobbies on the Fedâs behalf, continuously, so itâs only fair.

Title: Summary of The Only Game in Town by Mohamed A. El-Erian

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Publisher's Summary:

Please note: This is summary and analysis of the book and not the original book.

Mohamed A. El-Erian's The Only Game in Town: Central Banks, Instability, and Avoiding the Next Collapse is a discussion of the role of central banks in confronting the current financial and economic dangers facing the world. Following the financial collapse of 2008, central banks pursued aggressive and innovative policies in an effort to stabilize the world economy. Policymakers have failed to enact the measures necessary to ensure growth, and so central banks have had to continue to innovate and stabilize. In the long term, however, central banks cannot sustain growth on their own. If governments do not take steps to create growth and regulate financial markets, there will be another financial crisis....

Banks and the Economy

This summary of "The Only Game in Town" discusses the role of banks in the economic crisis that the world is currently dealing with. The summary is divided into different sections. The first section gives a general overview of the book. Other sections include a list of important people, 9 key takeaways that highlight the book's main points, an analysis of the key takeaways, and information on the original author's style and perspective. I don't have very much time to read, so I like that I was able to get the "gist" of what this book is about in under half an hour. If you like reading about economics, you will really enjoy this book. I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

How to fix our economy

With movies like "The Big Short," and "99 Homes," the media is dissecting the financial meltdown that ravaged our economy. The collapse of the housing market, and its ramifications, are still a sore spot for many Americans. Mohamed El-Erian explores what we should learn from this recession in his book "The Only Game in Town: Central Banks, Instability, and Avoiding the Next Collapse." The aggressive and innovative policies enacted to stabilize the world's economy have left the power in centralized banks, which cannot sustain growth on their own. If governments do not take steps to create growth and regulate financial markets, there will be another financial crisis.

This review by Instaread captured the discouraging and sad reality of the financial meltdown. By breaking down El-Erain's book, Instaread found 9 key takeaways about why the recession happened and how to prevent it. These insights, along with the summary, make for a detailed analysis of a crucial time in American history.

I highly recommend this review and summary. It helped me better understand our government's financial future, without having to trudge through tomes of dense economic analyses. I was given a copy of this book to review it.

The key role of central banks

Central banks play an important role in the world economy. While lack of effective regulation of banks contributed to the 2008 economic crisis, central banks stepped in and took innovative actions to deal with the financial ills the world faced. Mohamed A.

Title: Failed

Subtitle: What the "Experts" Got Wrong About the Global Economy

Author: Mark Weisbrot

Narrator: A. T. Chandler

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 18 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-15-16

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 10 votes

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

Why has the Eurozone ended up with an unemployment rate more than twice that of the United States more than six years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers? Why did the vast majority of low- and middle-income countries suffer a prolonged economic slowdown in the last two decades of the 20th century? What was the role of the International Monetary Fund in these economic failures? Why was Latin America able to achieve substantial poverty reduction in the 21st century after more than two decades without any progress?

Failed analyzes these questions, explaining why these important economic developments of recent years have been widely misunderstood and in some cases almost completely ignored. First, in the Eurozone, Mark Weisbrot argues, the European authorities' political agenda, which included shrinking the welfare state; reducing health care, pension, and other social spending; and reducing the bargaining power of labor played a very important role in prolonging the Eurozone's financial crisis and pushing it into years of recession and mass unemployment. This conclusion is based not only on public statements of European officials but also on thousands of pages of documentation from consultations between the IMF and European governments after 2008.

The second central theme of Failed is that there are always practical alternatives to prolonged economic failure. Drawing on the history of other financial crises, recessions, and recoveries, Weisbrot argues that regardless of initial conditions, there have been and remain economically feasible choices for governments of the Eurozone to greatly reduce unemployment - including the hardest hit, crisis-ridden country of Greece. The long-term economic failure of developing countries, its social consequences, and the subsequent recovery in the first decade of the 21st century constitute the third part of the book's narrative, one that has previously gotten too little attention. We see why the International Monetary Fund has lost influence in middle-income countries. Failed also examines the economic causes and consequences of Latin America's "second independence" and rebound in the 21st century as well as the challenges that lie ahead.

A must read text

Very well writen and documented by a critical economist who shows the impacts of neoliberalism and the 2008 market crash and the ensuing global crisis. The sections on Latin American countries are some of the best analysis I have read.

Five Stars

5 stars

Interesting Food For Thought

The title says it all: the author obviously has an axe to grind with the world's economic experts and the IMF in particular. In his scathing criticism, he doesn't hold back punches and is obviously not afraid to offend anyone.

Weisbrot is completely against austerity measures, believing they shrink the economy and widen the inequality gulf, making the rich richer and the poor poorer. He puts a lot of the blame for those measures squarely on the shoulders of the IMF, believing countries would be better off economically without the organisation's meddling.

Title: Created in China

Subtitle: How China Is Becoming a Global Innovator

Author: Georges Haour, Max von Zedtwitz

Narrator: Nigel Carrington

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 13 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-14-16

Publisher: Audible Studios for Bloomsbury

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

Undisputedly, China has become the world's manufacturing powerhouse, accounting for around half of all personal computers, digital cameras, and kitchen appliances. However, the country is fast transitioning from low-cost manufacturing to a higher-value, innovation-led economy, a critical transformation that is at the heart of this new title.

Companies are the essential engines of the wealth-creation process, particularly in the areas of Internet and mobile telecommunications, and firms such as Tencent and Xiaomi are showing clear potential to become major players. Demonstrating strong commitment to the country's relentless progress in the realm of innovation, the Chinese government has encouraged the development of a business environment in which firms can experiment, operate, and thrive. Created in China provides an examination of the critical human factors at play, as well as re-assessing some of the metrics traditionally used to describe and measure China's capacity for innovation. As Chinese firms begin to transform the country into a truly global innovator, the emerging patterns of future innovation are identified and reviewed.

New and dynamic practices are arising that are recognizably Chinese, yet at the same time capable of competing on the world stage. Following the successes of firms such as Huawei, Haier and Lenovo, a growing number of technology-focused firms are now turning their attention towards markets outside of China - a development that will not only benefit the country but will provide exciting opportunities for businesses throughout the world.

Members Reviews:

Excellent and quick insight into the economic success of one of the oldest cultures

This book gives an excellent and quick insight to China for those not so familiar and who are wondering from where the rise of this country comes from. Alibaba, Huawei or Foxconn are just a few of the new global players, and it's not so much about knocking off technologies from the West, but coming with original innovation.

There is still a lot to do for China, but the two authors guide with a a lot of data and examples through the economic system and the framework conditions of this country.

Informative book on Innovation in China

This book gives a comprehensive introduction into innovation in China. The chapters includes:

-Chinaâs glorious history of innovation

-Innovation indicators in China

-Government and firms as key actors of the innovation scene

-Framework conditions for innovations in China

-The human factor

-The contribution of non-Chinese innovators

-Becoming a global innovator- patterns in the public sector

-China becoming a global innovator

The chapters are supported by diagrams, key sources (such as the 12th Five Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of PR China), concise examples of innovative companies (Tencent, Huawei, Haier and others).

Overall, the book is well research with its wide-ranging chapters each covering sufficient depth. Personally, I find this book very readable and highly informative as it highlights the key insights for anyone who wants to get to know about how China is becoming a global innovator.
